Chatlog Part 1

author's note: this might turn into a series I am unsure I hope you guys enjoy this. Once again English is not my first language I apologize for the writing. -This series is about how people in teyvat see the conversation between the creator and their companion for us irl it's just chat messages in co-op. -Spoilers for the recent archon quest 4.1 -GN reader (might change that in the future) TW: nothing so far usual cult stuff

Ajax grimaced and glared at the Gardes holding him down. The posh marble floor reflected his annoyed visage and he had half a mind to destroy the expensive flooring. The Gardes were speaking about him as if he was not there listening to everything they said. They paid him no mind talking about things like the Fortress, the Oratrice, and arrest. Ajax paid them no mind he was far too annoyed to listen in. This vacation was getting worse and worse.

Then the traveler came, no it was their grace.

Suddenly this moment was more tolerable than it would not have been. The Gardes talking quieted and everyone was hypervigilant of the traveler. It seems their Grace was not alone, next to them their companion was walking behind them.

Their grace came closer it was then Ajax realized they were coming towards him. His breath hitched. He felt blood rush towards his face, he did not want to be seen by their grace like this. Weak and bound against his will where there was nothing he could do.

The traveler- no their grace stood now in front of him. Their face was neutral no indication of what they thought. The sun shined on the traveler in a golden glow. Their ethereal aura swept over the room like a warm blanket and his knees almost buckled over to kneel.

Suddenly their grace pointed the traveler's finger towards him and the traveler's face changed into a shit-eating grin.

"Ha ha! The evil fatui got arrested. Get rekt!"

Ajax wanted to cry.

"Gee no need to beat a dead horse," said the companion of their Grace through another's body Ajax could not name who.

Ajax wanted to protest that the creator could say whatever they wanted but the system binding them interfered and petrified his body. It was not just him thankfully everyone in this world seemed to be still and unable to acknowledge their Grace, except for their companion. How unfair.

The traveler who was possessed by their grace laughed and how lovely that sounded.

"Hey do you think we can visit him and prison and then," they laughed again, "feed him on a dog bowl?"

"That is oddly specific and sadistic."

"Please it would be so funny," said their grace and laughed.

If it meant that he would be mocked and humiliated to hear their grace laugh so carefree he would eat on a dog bowl and more. Ajax had no shame in that but what he found shameful, which he wanted to bury, was the feeling of wanting to be taken care of and worried over.

*Look at me they are imprisoning me against my will for something I did not do.*

Ajax knew he did not have that privilege or was deserving of it.

"Come let's go to the domain already," their Grace's companion said and went ahead to leave.

Their Grace followed after their companions and it seemed that their brief interaction would end. Ajax felt slightly helpless unable to do anything. Just as their creator was about to leave their grace turned around.

"By the way, I will most likely bust you out of prison stay put for the next one and a half months!"

Ajax looked up with a grin after hearing the declaration, by then their grace had already left.

"You heard that? our grace will be breaking me out," Ajax said with a challenging grin to the Gardes.

Said Gardes looked confused and pale-faced.

.

.

.

One and a half month later in the Fortress of Meropide the creator themselves came to the facility.

"CHILDE WHERE ARE YOU I TOLD YOU TO ####### STAY PUT!!!"

Fragments - episodes 19-22 author notes

You can find similar breakdown posts on older episodes in my pinned!

Obligatory ShB spoiler warning.

First off, the two panels that took a silly amount of time just because I wanted to reflect Vivi’s impressions on the city.

Episodes 18, 19, 20 open up with Vivi being concerned with the most pressing matters:

Can’t fight if you ain’t pretty (or got just 1-2 outfits to be pretty in, that won’t do either)

I still really like the panel above, especially their pose. Episodes 19-22 show how they gradually get rid of physical boundaries. They didn’t even touch back when they first met (episode 15).

Vivi’s casual about physical affection with friends, just one of his core things.

Of course Vivi would trust and choose the company of a pixie, a supernatural being, over a (presumably) human who only reinforces Vivi’s worst opinions on humanity at that point in time, concealing himself and swimming in secrets. Get rekt nerd.

At least Vivi isn’t openly hostile, just.. Dismissive? I saw some other WoLs who outright hate Exarch for abducting the Scions and almost getting themselves, the WoL, killed at Ghimlyt Dark. Vivi, however, just wants to be left alone.

Tfw the love of your life is being stolen by your dear friend. Or vice versa? Or both at the same time? Anyway, Vivi and Feo Ul form a new cool kids' club and Exarch isn't invited.

Can't relax in your favorite secluded spot for a godsdamned moment without some pesky dragoon randomly popping out of nowhere.

While I hc Exarch being able to sense living presence around the Tower, imagine doing that 24/7 for every person. I like to think that he learned to filter it out, turn off/on at will. And while he's in a public place, with his glamour up, he doesn't need to upkeep the "radar", he's just chilling and is possibly lost in thoughts, and that's why Vivi startles him.

This scene bears more symbolic meaning than plot importance. And, uh, some foreshadowing? Forelighting? x'D While Vivi doesn’t fall (heh) for his savior, he’ll reflect upon this at a later time.

Vivi’s normally careful and stately. Yes he’s an elf but he do be carryin’ himself like a cat. There’s a lot of control and assertion behind his trademark nonchalant posture. So, NORMALLY, this wouldn’t happen. Maybe he got distracted by the shiny? And where’s Feo Ul?

Exarch, however, the man that chokes on air unprompted, in a moment like this acts before he could think. As some people correctly noted, the old man’s QUICK. The “screentime” stretches out as Vivi’s life almost begins flashing before his eyes, while for Exarch it's gotta be a mere second or two.

I’m extra proud of the colorwork here. As if blood’s gone from Vivi’s face, as if his entire body went cold, but life slowly returns to him, starting with that hand. You bet this’s brimming with subtext.

Exarch uses his left hand over the right, for better friction and probably because he doesn’t like the attention to his right hand.

I like that this panel’s caused confusion, it worked as intended :9 An all too vague dark joke that almost cost Vivi his life. In his head it went like “yeah anyone can fly once, when they’re about to go splat”, but he wasn’t only preoccupied with the jumps, but also didn’t KNOW yet that he HAS TO speak with a fae like almost with a child, or a lawyer. Simplest terms. No ambiguity. EVER. They’ll misinterpret you unwittingly, or on purpose.

And so they did. Or didn’t? Feo Ul’s spent a long time offscreen, but whether they chose not to help, or even gave Vivi a little push, will forever stay a mystery because why not.

Lesson learned.. On both sides.. Hopefully. Also, fret not, Exarch WILL say fuck one day, one day~

Vivi's lucky. Incredibly so. He's aware of it, doesn't see it as anything special, like you don't see anything special in being able to read this. Perhaps jumping up an unknown structure while being accompanied by an exceedingly curious and mischievous creature is risky even for his kind, but Vivi's so used to getting away with so many things that he doesn't stop to consider it for the tiniest moment.

The first genuine exchange of smiles.

Silver lining: now they have better chances at getting along and returning to that world-saving duty.

Update from January 2024: I came back here to tell you something that took me so long to realize about episode 20′s description:

And all he saw was the Light, and then he knew that Death wore white in this world.

I randomly popped off with this prose, which on itself is a cool thing, but now I realize the extra meanings it could take on. Thinking about 5.x and Elidibus has me feeling unwell in the best way. THAT VIVI ALSO WEARS WHITE HERE IS UH. A coincidence. But it also kinda works as the Warrior of Darkness becomes somewhat of a local Reaper in the First, and then, well, then we have that Light corruption arc :3c

Vivi's calm and tender enough for a pixie to trust him with their wings.

Feo Ul ate and drank several times their size, and all that hero talk.. Ugh. Time for a nap.

Drawing this made me yawn at least 3 times. You’re not immune either.

He’s activating his scanners :>

Vivi's definition of nice is "not nagging, begging or preaching, and using bare facts and logic to convince the hero to do the hero thing".

Literally the next page if you’re reading in order :’> Riiiiiiiiight. That hero thing.

We don’t question whether Vivi invited his loveliest branch, or if they invited themselves. The fact is, they’re there and Vivi’s totally cool with it.

Exarch must be watching. And probably foaming at mouth as Feo Ul keeps leading in the race for Vivi’s heart. They don’t only earn the hero’s trust, but get in his bed and, gasp, brush his hair.

Vivi's getting comfy in his role somewhere between a disney princess and Feo Ul’s pet.

A writing-related tangent incoming, but, since you’re here, I assume you’re already somewhat interested in this kinda stuff.

So, there’s the script, the plain text that waits to get illustrated. The screenplay, if you will. I don’t just sit down and draw enough random things to fill a few pages, I approach this as an actual cohesive serialized story.

I changed a good half of this episode when I began storyboarding it. In the initial script from some months ago, Vivi said "I slept so well". Something about this didn't sit right with me. It’s the most basic mistake of telling instead of showing. I asked myself, would he, a person who takes good sleep and dreams for granted, say that out loud? Nah. I removed that bit, and drew him stretching deliciously. He also asked Feo Ul if they guarded his dreams, they smiled vaguely but warmly just like in the finalized version, but then Vivi simply muttered "I could get used to this" and gave them headpats. I decided to elevate this scene by adding this tiny rollercoaster, which brought Feo Ul's greyness to the forefront, and thickly hinted that Vivi doesn't only sleep well, but has nice dreams that he probably starts cherishing after this.

To be fair, this isn’t super important for the main plot, I just wanted to highlight the difference between Vivi and Exarch, the latter being in a hate-hate relationship with sleep. Vivi’s affinity with dreams is a door I like to keep open for the possible future story (talking post-EW events).

Now you know this’s the face they make before going apeshit.

Imagine if this prank didn't exist and instead Vivi simply said "I slept so well, this's so important to me". I’m proud of the writing muscle I’m growing on the fly ;w;

Ardbert's chance to act and feel normal, thwarted in the next few seconds.

I'm so glad that people are picking up on this!! “Hey man” is Vivi’s way of providing whatever comfort he could. An illusion of normalcy. He’s emotionally intelligent when it matters.

..But he should’ve also considered that Feo Ul can and will ruin the vibe :’>

Another screenwriting thing: this episode lacks an establishing shot, i.e. the obligatory zoomed out view on everyone in the room, but I think this’s a rare case of “less is more”. Along with the light vs shadow, it reinforces the feeling of separation. Vivi and Feo Ul are shown together, interacting, doing cute stuff, while Ardbert’s alone. Sorry not sorry for the hurty :’>

This’s all I’ve got for now. Thanks for reading and paying so much attention! People start to notice and analyze the things I’m weaving in, and it’s the best kinda interaction I as a creator could wish for.

[randomnameless]

So because of Leopold's support and the shadow assassinations by the Agarthans and Humbert , it would be irrealistic to have a civil war happen early on (as in it start during the first year of the war) despite how Edelgard's extended lmanifesto (not just the church part) screw over the nobility while at the same time screwing the church that, unlike the nobles, the civilians of Adrestia seem to somewhat give a shit about?

At least if the intent when writing a fanfic is to respect the lore/world building of Canon?

We don't see enough Adrestian civilians to even know what they think about, we heard about "missing" church people in Adrestia, but nothing about the commoners - we only hear in passing iirc Ashe talking about starvation because of the war, but idk if he's talking in general or about Adrestia.

Ferdie'n'Lysithea's paralogue tells us the randoms in Hrym and being bled dry under Ludwig's name (when he's actually framed by Thales!), and even if the game tries to avoid this topic like the plague, I still wonder where all those "war assets" are coming from, especially since the "people working" on those projects didn't hesitate a second to use Adrestians as guinea pigs (iirc Remire is in Adrestia!).

So Hubert's secret police + starvation + whatever is happening thanks to Agarthans riling people up like what happens in Hrym + Leopold being in charge of the army (that is made up of people from other places than just, Bergliez) + Hubert being Hubert, aka willingly take people hostage or threaten them to make their families comply + Supreme Leader (I mean Hubert) jailing/rekting "corrupt" nobles in the first days of her ascension to the throne...

Nopes apparently says Enbarr's people are pretty happy about the war, because they're revanchists and are hell removed from the frontlines - but what about the rest of Adrestia?

I once compared the coronation scene in CF to a coup (because Billy and Supreme Leader are accompanied by soldiers) but it would sort of match, Supreme Leader gets total control of the army through Bergliez's lust of power/conquest, control over the finances because Linhardt's dad is just like that I guess, Hubert oversees everything and, at least in FE16, Arundel still sides with her.

Aegir was neutralised, Vestra Sr was put in a trashcan, and Varley is either reduced to a puppet or to House arrest.

There are no powers left to oppose her in Adrestia, and if commoners somehow managed to rebel, they would have to deal with their very own national army, secret police and random Agarthans... on top of finding enough food to eat to survive while the ressources are given to the frontlines.

But in a way, everything I'm just saying bar the canon facts of :

having Leopold and the Army + Waldemar and the money

Hubert doing Hubert things

opposing big name nobles being swiftly deposed/neutralised just after her coronation (or before in Nopes!)

food shortages

FE16 wise : Agarthans taxing randoms to death/ Nopes : Agarthans killing people randomly

FWIW, AG where we learn a bit more about Adrestia, and how, apparently, Agarthans and bandits (?) are slaughtering randoms there, but the nobles are too concerned by the Kingdom's assault to protect their people, and would rather see them die than divert troops to, just, have the bandits/agarthans stop creating rivers of blood with the bloods of the people they're supposed to protect.

Everything else is headcanon/AUs/fanfic/however you want to call it.

So bar those points... Adrestia just exists and it's a damn shame, because even Begion managed to get its pseudo civil war between Sanaki and the Senate where commoners/people supported one over the other, but in Adrestia? Bar the BE peeps and a few dads, you have the feeling no one else exists.

FWIW, in the non CF routes, the opera company joins Billy's army iirc, so maybe they're not loyalists? And represent some people who aren't that gung-ho about the war?

i have that random headcanon that in Nopes, Manu and Mittelfrank are used for spying stuff, and actually, through Yuri and Manu herself, give intel about what happens in Enbarr to the CoS while the opera workers try to sabotage as much as they can some stuff in the Imperial Army... but that's just an AU lol

My TV's Gijinka!

Well... It's been a long time since I last posted something there, hasn't it? It's been... What, months now? That's crazy! However, I came back with something, that I guess you would to see! A gijinka, or rather an Anthro-Object... Or Objectheads? Nevermind!

Original creation date: February 15th, 2024

So, yeah this is a pretty old picture, however despite it, I still want you to see it too! Originally, I wanted to post it alongside his headcanoned family, however... When I realised I might not do that, I just decided to upload him first, however don't worry - I will upload my other Gijinkas/Object Heads (or Anthro-Objects? I have no clue what to call my designs!), so I promise ya won't have to wait that long for me to post something again!

Headcanons below!

Warning, there are mentions of bullying, mental health problems and death, so read at your own risk!

Family headcanons:

He was born on October 8th, 2000, exactly one year after Schulkie - the last cat guard, died. His father, the Announcer, was worried that it could be a sign of some sort of bad luck, however nothing bad really happened.

His biological family is the Announcer and Jasmine (my OC, who is a smartphone), who are his parents and Remote, who's his older sister (she's 40). He has fostered brother - Donut and fostered mother - Cherry Jam (@classypartynerdpalace OC).

What happened with Jasmine is a mystery to everyone outside his family (and his friend circle), however some speculate, that she died when he was too young to remember her (though it is often debunked, as he does mention her, however not by name, but by her description, and also some people say, that they know Jasmine personally [Jasmine is pink smartphone woman]), or that she left the Announcer because of their love between each other not being "genuine" [it is often noted, that they were never happy together, that they were married, because of the Announcer's father - Rekt wanting him to get with someone rich, and Jasmine appeared to be rich enough]).

Speaking of the Announcer's parents, Rekt (TV's grandpa), who is a Dark Red Speaker Box, and Kotl (TV's grandma), who is an azure speaker box, never met their grandkids, due to them meeting "early fates"

TV and Donut, despite them not being related by blood, treat each other as siblings (they often play games together, spend time together, either by talking, listening to music, watching cartoons together, competing, etc.)

Despite having completely opposite personalities, he and Remote have pretty good relationship with each other, however TV is closer with Donut.

He has distant cousin - a silly television called ZickZack, who is related to him in an unknown way (however, most people speculate, that he is related to him through someone from Jasmine's family, as the Announcer was the only kid to Rekt and Kotl, and he himself confirmed he "Doesn't know if he does have any family relationship between speaker boxes, and even if he had, they didn't get to the Earth")

The surname to him and his whole family is Aurelious (Taken after his father). He feels pretty content with having Aurelious as his surname.

His mother, Jasmine, had a surname of Baird.

From his father's side, he has the cosmic background, from his mother's side - he has Scottish and Italian background (just like his sister - Remote).

Relationship headcanons:

Despite not showing it often, he does hate Golf Ball for the things she did to him, when he was younger, and how she never apologised to him (though he doesn't know, that she does regret her actions and wants to make amends with him).

He does hate Pencil and Match too, especially the first one, for mistreating and bullying him, when he was young too.

With other Freesmart members, he is on good terms with Book and Ice Cube (especially with Book, as both of them deal with the same mental problems), is neutral towards Ruby (he finds her annoying, however not to the point of hating her), and has a thing going on with Bubble (they're dating).

He has a thing going on with Tennis Ball too (they're dating)

He is QPP with Pen and Pie.

He dates Liy, Bottle, 8-Ball, Tree, Snowball, Basketball and Robot Flower too

One of his most controversial decision was to date an Algebralian, or rather two Algebralians - Two and Seven

He is secretly having a relationship with Evil Leafy

He is friends with Fanny, has a neutral relationship with Firey and Leafy (he doesn't hate them, but doesn't like them either)

Whenever he does hate someone, he shows it, as being constantly sarcastic, doing allusions to how he was treated by them, or just avoiding that person, whenever there's a chance (ex. he avoids GB, Match and Pencil)

Interests!

He is interested into mechanics, engineering and creating stuff, so that's why he went to study engineering, and started to try to to help 8-ball into his own laboratory.

He sometimes helps Basketball with stuff too

He really, really loves going to the local beach, whenever he has the chance, as viewing the waves moving towards the land, or even seeing the biggest waves during the fall in Goiky, or seeing them being caused by something else, seeing the local Goikian birds being there and there, listening to the noise of the waves and seeing the sun, makes him calm down, whenever he's in bad mood.

He does love to go to the Evil Forest, not because he loves facing Evil Leafy, but because he feels... He feels like he DOES belong there, that he would feel great living there, that he would fit in there (this is related to him feeling heavily connected with the Evil Forest and with Evil Leafy in general),

About video games, he loves all types of video games, whether those are RPGs, shooting games, however his favourite type of video games are definitely horror games, especially the psychological horror genre. The reason is, he finds them extremely relaxing, they help him calm down his nerves, and he can relate to ALL struggles the characters are going through.

He does try to create music, however he's still bad at it.

He is a pretty neat cook, to be honest, however he's not a master chief.

He does like listening to music, especially if the tone of the song is completely opposite to the lyrics. Why? Probably due to him knowing, that the world does try to sell him messages, while doing the opposite of the said message.

He is interested in science, however, unlike Golf Ball, he doesn't want to take it to the EXTREME.

He sometimes streams various games on some sort of Object version of Twitch, or Youtube. His nickname there is "SCOTTISHGAMER2000"

He rarely goes to the parties, and if he goes to one, he prefers if it is a small party, not a 100-200 hundred people parties (he hates, when there's too many people in one place)

He does love drawing a lot, however his paintings and art is often... Disturbing, to said at least. Some of them show disturbing images, such as people dying, the planet being destroyed, forest burning etc.,

He does write too - he writes either the most heart-wrenching stuff ever, or some of the most heart-warming stuff. There is no in between.

Other headcanons:

Due to little to nothing information about his personality, I imagine him to be someone, who is often melancholic, lonely, creative, however can show his side (ex. being sarcastic, being sneaky little bastard), who tries to try to find positivity in this world. He is also that type of person, who despite struggling with mental health, who experienced a lot of bullying, when he was younger, he still wants to help people, especially the ones he cares the most about.

He can sometimes be a really sneaky bastard, if he wants to.

He can sometime isolate himself from others, due to him having "worse days", and not wanting people to worry about him (which does the exactly opposite, really),

He is diagnosed with atypical autism and depression,

His real name is Sean, however he prefers, when strangers and people, who don't know him well, refer to him as TV.

He relates to Book's past and often feels, that she does understand him, as they both went through a lot, went through a similar experience, and that they could be friends. Great friends.

His partners and QPPs are aware of his relationship with Evil Leafy, and tries to keep anyone else to not know it, due to possible backslash related to who Evil Leafy really is,

Sometimes, he questions himself, if he is real, if everything around him is real,

He wants to keep going, however there are moments, where he wants to give up,

He acts like a cat a lot of times, for example he can purr, he can stretch himself as much as possible, he can curl up into a ball, and sleep in that position, he can see in the darkness, he can "loaf" too.

Speaking of acting like a cat, he does like to be pet under the chin, just like how most cats like to be pet there!

Sometimes, he wishes he could be healthy, he could be able to keep stable relationship with people around him (he tries his best)

He attends therapy weekly, and his therapist is Candle (from III)

[cyanide-latte]

10, 12, and 58 for Chrysanthos and Copper, please ^^

Oooohhhhh, very interesting choices! These forced me to think quite a bit.

10: What fact do they excitedly tell everyone about at every opportunity?

Copper: "Did you know there are six stages of rigor mortis, and it begins to set in about two hours after death, and then it peaks at 12 hours and stays that way for close to 2 days?" Copper this is not something most people find fascinating and you might need to question why Stone taught you this, please seek therapy.

Chrysanthos: "Coolest thing I ever learned when I was adjusting to being an Octavinelle freshman was that the largest waterfalls are actually underwater."

12: What’s something that makes them laugh every single time? Be specific!

Copper: If Twisted Wonderland has a Vine equivalent, then there's got to be an equivalent to this Vine that would always make him laugh. He thinks it gets funnier the longer it loops.

Chrysanthos: Heckling the Headmage and seeing Crowley lose his damn smile (disrespectfully, get rekt, old man.) Anytime Idia tries to brag/lie about having a lot of friends (come ON, little cuz, just be real.) Ortho attempting to use different voice mods to sound serious and get past whatever language locks he's got built into himself (let him be allowed to swear, it'll be even funnier.) Azul attempting to play social power chess with him (you're playing chess kiddo, but my game is 3-card monte and you're not watching the hands.)

58: How many hobbies have they attempted to have over their lifetime? Is there a common theme?

Copper: Poor kid hasn't had much opportunity to develop or take up hobbies prior to enrolling at NRC. However! He loves storytelling (he used to do this for himself as a kid, and since I headcanon that the Scarabia dorm does regularly do story circles as a little nod to the 1001 tales, after some initial hesitation Copper really latches onto this and it's part of how he builds and maintains friendships in that dorm.) He also really loves learning languages, even if he has a somewhat casual approach and treats it like a hobby. In the TWST equivalent of New Orleans and the nearby bayous, he picked up enough that he can understand most of what Rook says when he speaks French. Copper also subconsciously will codeswitch when speaking with Sam if Sam codeswitches around him. When Sam points this out and talks with him, he encourages Copper to continue looking into learning languages, so he does.

Chrysanthos: He's pretty mum about what his hobbies were as a little kid. When he hit adolescence, everything was blastcycle racing and urban exploration. These days he still works on blastcycles as a way to kill time (his own doesn't see much use anymore but that might change as @ramshacklerumble 's Gia slowly warms up to him and he tells them to take the cycle for a spin,) drops in on NRC for visits when he feels like it and can fabricate an excuse, collects the soundtracks of musicals, lectures troublemakers on how to get away with urban exploration, and generally loves pissing off Crowley in any little way he possibly can.

Thanks for the ask!

My YGO Hetero Ships: Part 1

Wanted to make a little post about my Yugioh hetero ships because I feel like I don't talk about them much. And then the post wasn't little, oh well. Mostly Trustshipping and Polarshipping rants.

Peachshipping is a bit of a foregone conclusion for me. It's intuitive and I think they work so well together and are good for each other. I use it as a world-filling background ship a lot because it's just so... obvious to me? And wholesome, don't forget wholesome. It's sweet, it's positive, it's healthy. I don't have a strong grasp on either character which is why I haven't written it, and I don't feel passionately about it, but I do support it.

Blueshipping was the very first ship I ever wrote in my very first fanfic ever, and while I do support the ship, I haven't written it since then. There is implied past Mizushipping in Rock Bottom, but Kisara still dies like canon, so tragic ending and Seth is rekt. Like Peachshipping, this one is a no-brainer for me, it just only exists when Kisara gets to live/come back, because otherwise it's pure angst and tragedy.

Trustshipping is in the future for a current unfinished fic but I haven't actually written it otherwise. Currently working on a one-shot wip with my husband for it though. This is one that I do feel quite passionately about because I think Ishizu is one of the few people that even has a chance at getting close to Kaiba, in terms of purely canonical characterizations. And in terms of non-pure canonical characterizations (aka the fun stuff), there's even more potential for passion and romance. I think they've both had to grow up too fast, take care of their little brothers, deal with abusive fathers, make difficult decisions, and be forced into a role that they didn't ask for/weren't ready for. There will be understanding, patience, and compassion there, mostly just from Ishizu but you get the idea. The dragon doesn't want to be tamed but gradually realizes the benefits of the arrangement. She's strong-spirited in a quiet way and she won't let Kaiba treat her poorly. People might think she's Kaiba's trophy wife at first, being exotic and beautiful, but I think she can absolutely hold her own with poise, class, and wit. Whenever she has to go to a snobby social event with him, people will gradually realize that he didn't tame her, she tamed him. Ishizu the dragon-tamer. He is her dragon, she is his queen. She's not a trophy wife, she's not a gold-digger. Neither of them are a prize to be won. This is a partnership, and if you ever disrespect one of them in front of the other, you will be flayed with their words. She will also absolutely have her own career in Egyptology/Archaeology which helps to discourage the conception that she married him for any reason besides her love for him.

Polarshipping is another one that I think I've only written once, and it was in the context of Ettushipping, but I stan it quite hard. I won't shut up about it anytime Mai and Joey are in a scene together when I watch Yugioh with my husband. ("Omg look at the way he smiles at her! And look at the way she looks at him! And OMG he would die for her, this boy is too pure!!") I think I've used it as a background ship before a couple times maybe? But I love their canon storyline together and their dynamic (and I can even appreciate what happens for them in Season Four, even though that season kinda ruins Mai and does her all kinds of dirty, Joey's determination to help her despite her turning on them, despite Tristan saying "you're better off letting her go because I don't want to see you get hurt again", is one of the sweetest things and Joey is such a puppy and once they finally get together, I hope Mai understands what a Good Boy she has and absolutely spoils him). I do feel strongly about them and I want to write them at least one-shot at some point.

[septic-dr-schneep]

Just saw the FNAF movieeee :D (Spoilers and babble about the experience below the cut, in no particular order because I'm just trying to get it all down before I forget)

My group went in costume and a bunch of girls in Springtrap shirts freaked out when they saw us taking pictures by the poster <3

The theater didn't have a full size cutout, which sucked, and the only big poster they had was Bonnie. They didn't include the others. Missed opportunity on the theater's part and ours as cosplayers

The theater was offering plushies but they sold out before I could get one ;-;

Someone asked me (dressed as Elizabeth) if the ice cream was worth getting rekt. I said it was just vanilla so...probably not

A Mike cosplayer and I made sibling eye contact and that was enough. There was a Mangle there too, that was neat, and an Afton who made his Spring Bonnie head out of Lego! That was so cool!

Loved the 8bit opener with him leading each of the kids away, that was cool

Abby is our neurodivergent little queen

Nice little detail that William didn't offer Mike the job until he saw his last name and connected him to Garrett

Matpat, you sly dog XD Now we now the truth. Sans isn't Ness, Matpat himself is Ness! Congrats!

Everybody cheered Foxy running down the hall, a classic

I initially mistook the Sparky animatronic for Fetch ^^" Rookie mistake, RIP

Frickin' Balloon Boy trolling everyone was a delight

I spotted the "It's Me" on the mirror and others in my group saw the one on the electrical panel, that was fun

Heard someone behind me call out the Bite of 87 right before Max got bisected. Oof

Some people apparently hadn't seen Cory in the trailer and screamed so loud when they saw him XD

Vanessa chucking Mike's prescription in the river? Rude, those could've been expensive

Vanessa being Afton's daughter, I'm kinda ehhh? about and so was the rest of the audience but I consider it a separate universe from the games so it'll slide

We got a springlocking onscreen! I thought they might have done it just offscreen and let audio do the work but whoopsie!

"I always come back." We know, king, we know, and we all applauded you for it

Everybody erupted when we heard the Living Tombstone! I'm so glad they got a fan song for the credits, such a nice thank you to the community!

I would've died if we got a Phone Guy "Hello, hello?" and I wish Mark could have been in it but I hope he'll appear in the sequel. If I had to criticize a couple things, I'd say the pacing had its slow points and the child actors were a little stiff sometimes but I still really enjoyed myself. All around fun <3

[chancellorxofxtrash]

So episode 39 huh

Some general notes:

Michinaga barging into Keiwa's home and refusing to elaborate is fucking funny. I love this dumb bull so much

Sara and Neon are so sweet

the infections are kinda a fun way to do this

Win should unionise "you can get happiness money cannot buy" SOUNDS LIKE A BAD EMPLOYER. GO AND UNIONIZE WIN.

get rekt

Kekera schemey schemer

BEROBA MY DEAR

Daichi being unhinged as shit is fun as FUCK and y'all are just mean

Keiwa notes (also Neon once I got into it):

yeah ok no, this is perfectly fine for him to hesitate before entering. Keiwa was always a person who... to switch the saying around, he can't see the trees from a forest. He always was chasing ideals. World peace. Grandiose plan of saving all dead riders.

Him being unsure about whether entering is worth it if he can't do something Grand, makes sense. Especially if you consider that he still has Ace around who could always solo entire missions even before becoming a quasi-god

But when push comes to a shove, he always did the right thing. Always. Remember the JGP? When again, it was explicit they won't get a wish in the end? He and Neon both stood up again and fought. Just like they did it again

Also we DON'T know if she would pick to be a rider in general, if she can't get her wish granted. So it's easy to judge Keiwa for his heistation when Neon doesn't even have a choice. But she does say that she can't be a rider so has to fight for her goals in other ways. It isn't until she sees civilians being attacked that she laments the lack of power to protect people. Up until that point even she only laments about not being able to get her wish anymore.

This is Not to knock down Neon I'm just pointing out that her and Keiwa are a lot in the same ballpark. Just like every single rider in the DGP, they fought for their own wishes, so when presented with an opportunity to keep fighting without the wish, Keiwa hesitated (and honestly, Neon probably would have too), but when they actually SEE innocents being in danger, when they are put into that situation, even without transforming, they jump into the fray. And they do the right thing.

In the end, they are heroes. They are kamen riders, even without a suit. Because when put to a test, even without their powers, they were there to help people.

And THE MOST IMPORTANT PARTS

THEY HAVEN'T BEEN ON THE SAME SCREEN TOGETHER IN THE OP SINCE THE SCHEME ARC I AM NOT CRYING YOU ARE CRYING I MISSED THEM SO MUCH

LOOK AT THEM. THEY ARE PERFECT. MY FUCKING OT4

CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE OTHER THREE BEING REPLACED ON THIS SCREEN WITH THEIR FINAL FORMS TOO

AAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[loafbud-wc]

How do the clans work in your universe? I mean, it seems more humanized/anime-esque (not that it's a bad thing!) and I'm curious

I've been meaning to write out how the Clans are in my AU but never got around to, so I'm happy that you asked this!!

SO UUUUH-- THIS RESPONSE IS GONNA BE VERY VERY WORDY

Warriors AU: A Superhero society of cats!

Each cat is born with their own superpower with a unique title that is said to be StarClan-given; not every superpower is unique tho, since multiple cats can have similar powers (e.g. lightning, super speed). So if two cats had the same superpower (e.g. fire power) the titles for their superpower will be different (like "Fire Blaster" & "Rage Flame"). For the powers regarding The Three, I'll talk more about them later on!

The ranks in this AU go like this:

Kits -> Kits

Apprentice -> Intern

Warrior -> Hero

Medicine Cats -> Medics

Deputy -> #2 Hero

Leader -> #1 Hero OR Superhero

Elder -> Retiree

(this AU is heavily inspired off of My Hero Academia btw!)

Some examples of Heroes & their powers: Longtail's Tailwhip / Lionheart's Mighty Roar / Sunbeam's Sunburst

Instead of being known as "warrior" cats they refer to themselves as "hero" cats, and the Clan cats live in more of a superhero society. Most often rivalry amongst Clans are about which Clan is the most heroic, etc

All the cats in the AU have humanlike capabilities/knowledge, like operate machines & occasionally walk on two legs

The Three (aka Jayfeather, Lionblaze, and Dovewing)

Every Clanborn cat has superpowers in this AU, so what does that make The Three (who have StarClan-given powers in canon)???

In this AU, The Three still have their powers like in the books. But the difference with them is that they are known as The Superstars!! They can take their superpowers and reach it to maximum heights by briefly evolving into a Superstar Form! <- I'LL MAKE A SEPARATE POST ABOUT THIS CONCEPT LATER

When Firestar got revealed to be the Fourth cat in the prophecy, his Superstar Form is literally just him going Super Saiyan mode LOL!!!

By the end of the Great Battle, they've fulfilled the prophecy and can no longer take on their Superstar Forms. Just like in the books, they also lose their own superpowers altogether in this AU.

BloodClan in the AU!

I'M HONESTLY SUPER EXCITED TO TALK MORE ABOUT MY AU BLOODCLAN,,,,, UHH SORRY THIS ASK RESONSE IS LONG ALREADY LOL!!!!

BloodClan in this AU are a squad of punks that reside in Radioscream City, an abandoned city that was once sprawled & bustling with many people. All-over town are cardboard forts and LOOOTS graffiti. The members in BloodClan are referred to as grunts; their vibes have inspirations taken from Pokemon rival teams, specifically Team Yell!!!! Much like Team Yell, BloodClan grunts are HUUUGE FANS of Scourge & also have like,, posters they draw fanart on to show support for him. Even after Scourge is gone, BloodClan basically lives on as a Scourge fanbase haha

BloodClan cats do have superpowers, but they all share the same kind: Graffiti Saliva, where their saliva has become toxic paint they use to graffiti anywhere they go (i created this concept years before pokemon came up with grafaiai who's literally just my bloodclan concept- im p sure the concepts used elsewhere too but man lol)

A VERY TL;DR (NOT REALLY) BLOODCLAN LORE: growing up, Scourge (as Tiny) grew up being obsessed with video games, vampires & loved dark-colored aesthetics & graffiti-styled stuff (got it from one of their owner's kid who he liked to watch while they're gaming). When he ran away to Radioscream City after the Tigerclaw incident, it was overrun with cats without a name for themselves.

When Tiny called himself Scourge, he created BloodClan out of the stray cats & introduced them to graffiti painting. His otaku, vampire-loving side never changed & he references video games in life a lot. Scourge'd also say something like "LAWL" or "WE ARE TEH HAWTNESS o3o" or "GET REKT". After Scourge obtained Graffiti Saliva, he found a discarded painting mask that he wears 24/7.

I NEED TO MAKE A SEPARATE BLOODCLAN LORE INFO DUMP POST SOMETIME LATER ON, IDK WHEN

PHEW ALRIGHT THAT'S ALL I CAN THINK OF WITHOUT MAKING THIS ANY WORDIER THAN IT ALERADY IS HAHA

I'll talk more about my interpretation of warrior cats in the future as different posts so I can go more in-depth + draw pics for those!

[nachosncheezies]

Thinking about season 8 (my beloved 😍) and something in how the awkwardness and trauma and DISTANCE after resurrection was a perfect tool to keep everyone themselves. Mulder could've been overprotective, overbearing, overinvolved, borderline obnoxious about the whole pregnancy thing. I think that if he was there the whole time it would've been a very fine line to walk, story wise, to do that without taking away from Scully as an individual. Scully in the field, Scully being a rebel, Scully doing whatever the fuck she feels like. Not to say it wouldn't have been interesting if they had successfully navigated that interaction between his guilt complex/overprotectiveness and her fierce independence. But the tension between Mulder saying 'Scully no' and Scully saying 'Scully YES' and mulder saying '...okay Scully you are my partner I support you' but watching her like a damn hawk was something they had kind of resolved and moved on from after the cancer arc and esp after Emily. By taking Mulder out of the picture she was only mother henned by people she would always have said 'thank you for your concern, get rekt' to. They set her up to go through most of it without the one person she MIGHT listen to hovering beside her, and sidestepped trying to figure out who desk job Scully would be in a world where Mulder is still chasing monsters. They didn't have to figure out who monster chaser Mulder would be in a world where he wouldn't call his partner for backup when something really cool or scary was going on. Scully didn't take a desk job or play it safe. Mulder only had to go fetch her and send her home once, and it was after she had already conceded to her doctor (but then, just like we'd expect from either of them, she went back to the lab to help save her [other] partner. And he knew recognized it and recognized that this was her and said okay I'll get it done. It was good for a one-time. Probably not good for a whole season) We never had to watch them have that fight.

aggafshfdsgfhdfh wait. various magical girl transformations for my chaotic ass shitlord ocs

rex: he spins around and gets sparkly and then at the end of it just shoots you in the face because you were distracted by the lightshow. get fucked. hesitation is death loser

felyx: has a proper magical girl transformation and everything, shows up in a cute little purple dress with flowy sleeves, except at the end of the lightshow he just fucking disappears in a puff of smoke. so does your wallet

azkaileh/ayleh: magical-girl-transforms from big badass lady to bigger badasser lady. she gets a cool spear for her trouble but she doesn't use it because she can already shoot fire from her hands and punch you through walls without it and that's more fun

taz: magical girl transformation does nothing but fluff his hair up, unless he's in dragon form, at which point he immediately starts glowing. he gets more of a super saiyan transformation than anything else except he doesn't go blond. he used to transform cool armor out but he thought it was uncomfortable and petitioned the board of magical girl transformations until they'd let him stop

adder: are you prepared to be lit on fire and/or frozen to death? he hasn't done the magical girl thing since he was like 18, joined a pirate ship, moved to a different country, transed his gender and learned that there were more effective threats. now he will just put a hand on your shoulder if you're getting heated with him and smile and let you know you're fu-hucked if you want to keep on in this vein, but if you'll cut it out we can all be friends so why don't you sit the fuck down? but his magical girl transformation gives him a giant fucking sword and a cape that changes color every time you look at it

silas: she's already time-unlocked so frankly the magical girl thing is not that scary in comparison. she also doesn't use it often but it gives her a strength buff so it makes it easier for her to lug her plant experiments around. she also gets a giant sword and a cape that changes color every time you look at it but she doesn't wear those around while moving science from place to place, obviously, she just takes them off and leaves them somewhere safe. she's petitioned the board a couple times for it to be switched into a pen or something she can use for scientific purposes but they're not going to bend on the protector/fighter focus of the transformation so she just has to deal with that

velan: i cant say "fuckoff big clipboard" but i am sorely tempted to. if she were a mage she would use it to automate her fucking paperwork. she was the closerverse version of spec ops, she would be personally offended by the lightshow thing..... maybe she gets like shadowstep and shadow blades. i think that'd fit her personality. there's a big lightshow but she vanishes out of it literally the second it starts going and while you're watching she cuts your spine out of your torso. or something. but for the most part these days she doesn't use it and complains about how she can't use it to do import forms and taxes with

nadiya: FUCKOFF BIG SPEAR nadiya is already a spear person but her magical girl transformation is like "big spear. on fire. magic fire. stabs you and you burn green. get rekt" (additional post-story leveled-up diyel variant: still a giant spear but now it's a little more like a javelin. he can throw it off taz and hit people with it with uncanny video-game-tracker-style accuracy on account of how its a magic weapon. it explodes. no one wants to deal with him)

redshift: its just his takeoff/launch sequence. it is hot pink and full of sparkles. the sparkles are highly toxic and very hot ofc but they sure are pretty. but this has always been how i imagined him turning into a live sparkly triangle LMAO

[randomnameless]

The Fodlan games are doing such a bad job at antagonizing Rhea the joke writes itself. I think one of the worst example is how in the Shambala chapter of Nopes Dimitri will say " Yes I agree with you Clout the church is oppressive and mistreating the people but I need to side with it for the sake of the people" like ?? Can KT stop trying to paint Rhea as evil they are doing a terrible job at it and as a result make all the character sound like complete buffon

Nopes is basically using the premise of some early AO3 fanfics, where an uwu golden route is only possible if everyone allies against the Church bcs Church BaD, even if it means Clout and Dimitri have to be A-OK with MAGA.

Dimitro in Zahrofl is just... Ron who became a death eater, I guess, because otherwise, that plot point would never work.

The CoS is oppressive and mistreats people, that's why they're helping his very own people - under his authorisation - let it be the monks and priests from the CoS or the knights of the KoS who are dying to protect Faerghus.

So we have some "they're evil evil evil" told, hammered in 2/3rds of the game - and I'd say even AG is kind of hinting it, because the Kingdom doesn't want to help them because that's the right thing to do, but because they need to help them otherwise some people won't be happy, and etc etc tradition and apparently the CoS is the reason why the Kingdom exists, or something (Loog who?)

But in a way, I find it very interesting, because to get this "Rhea BaD" nonsense that is supposed to glue the plot of both games (even FE16 with the uwu "ReFoRmS" ending with the CoS being reformed, because... Adrestians were acting like asses to Adrestians, i guess), the Fodlan games bank on Rhea not being playable/support-able or even being able to interact with her - save for the worst support of the game -

(tfw she has no line with Flayn in FE16)

We have the "baby's first steps" framing from WC where the game makes a spectacular show of framing her as "BaD" and "OmInOuS" for executing people who killed her wards, telling a bunch of third parties that if they point their swords and weapons at her and her people she will flatten them and asking to young people aiming to be military leaders because they enrol in an officer's academy to rekt bandits or to participate in subduing an insurrection that might be led against her, but targets randoms who are "in the way" and was going to bring ruin to a bunch of non fighters.

And it's all for naught, because WC ends on the "twist" that Supreme Leader was the mastermind behind all the terrorist/biological attacks that prompted the CoS to react - and yet, the game is written in a way that you remember the cast being "frightened" by Rhea executing robbers who robbed lives, but not the cast being disgusted and enraged and feeling betrayed by their "uwu classmate" viewing all of their lives as unconsequential and turning innocent people in live weapons, including some students themselves

(or at least being furious at Supreme Leader for abiding and associating with those terrorists who turn fellow classmates in biological weapons)

And then we have all those "the church must be reformed", even with Seteth's own endings - furthering the point that Rhea was BaD, because if she wasn't, why her church needs reformation?

In the end, we have a character who is BaD but Billy cares for her despite her BaDnEsS, so she's redeemable... as long as Billy wants to befriend her.

Meanwhile, "I wanted to walk with u" is framed as a tragedy in the routes where you have to kill her - the player (?) and the cast feel bad for her because of... uh, reasons (uwudeals) and her most ominous actions are swept under Fodlan's rug.

FFS, Leonie is the only character - bar Dimitri who laters learns to "accept" Supreme Leader - who holds a grudge at her for what happened in WC!

Nopes just gave the occasion to the BL - who completely dropped her from the plot even if she was still tackled because "CoS needs ReFoRmS" - to diss her, which makes them look even more ridiculous (or the writing feel even more forced) because she's sitting next to them, giving soup to orphans...

But in Nopes, Faerghus, the Kingdom of very toxic notions like "helping each other in times of need" and "protecting your loved ones and the ones who cannot protect themselves" suddenly decide to throw Rhea and the CoS away because refugees apparently started the war since they didn't want to die, and this war is now brought to their hometurf even if Supreme Leader said she wanted to erase said hometurf to conquer Fodlan :/

Tl;Dr : Rhea BaD bcs she exists, and if you didn't understood that after playing both games, you need to play them again!

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III 1990 (Live reaction blog)

When I saw the poster, I thought this was a Christmas-themed film, which is odd, but hey, that means Santa would surely be the villain here. Until I look more closely. It's time travel, meaning Renet! So, without further adu, let's hit start!

Starting at Japan, 1609, so specific.

The opening sun is like Lion King, but more war like

Whoa, did they really filmed this in a beach while riding a horse?

Gasp! A ninja!

Oh? A runaway prince?

Oof—smooth transition

Why are dancing?

Fun training montage

Aw Raph, why hit the music ?

Ah yes, the universe really likes proving Rapheal wrong

Oh! April got a new haircut! Neat!

I'm jealous, I wanna look like a boy sometimes

So, no renet? :(

Another great transition!

We’re obviously continuing where we left off

The western outfit stands out when it’s sorounded with Japanese samurai’s armor

Ooooh, son talking back—wait, war?!

Oh, so suddenly your worried for you son’s well being when you were moments away decapitating his head until you were interrupted by Walker

Why is there must on the ground?

Dramatic much, prince?

Kozo means brat, right?

Siding with the enemy? Hmmm… I have no sides yet since I don’t have all elements to decide

Wow, serious anger issues, prince Kenshin

Oh wow! The turtles were documented?!

They don’t look like Kappa! Look up a Kappa and they don’t look like them!!! Where’s the weird bowl flower that Kappas supposed to have?!

April! Just drop the staff!

“She’s a man!” Wish it were that easy

Now how will April communicate when she can’t understand Japanese?

Obviously, the rat has more fear than a turtle

Looking great April, still jealous of your hair tho

How come that managed to travel with you? Wait, do you even have a bra with you?! Wait, is the prince wearing your bra???

Just splash him with sewer water guys

Oh! Good, at least April won’t be killed since they can speak English

I forgot being called a witch is bad

That might be very expensive guys!

Damn, April has no fear. Granted, he life became crazy, so I don’t blame her

April! No! Just say no! My gosh

Good for the prince being complimented

Eeey! Casey Jones! Good to see you!

Why would you need someone to help a MASTER ninja???

I’m about to comment on how old school trap until I remember she’s in the past

Why is that man so sweaty???

Glad she isn’t the first

Are this steel bars or sticks? If sticks, April should make a plan then escape

That’s Casey??? Huh???

Oh, mistaken identity

Ah yes, love, whatever

Mikey got a point

More like Teenagers

Oh heat, Mikey idea worked!

For honouuuur!!! I say this sarcastically

And Mikey is riding the horse with style✨

“I swallowed a Frog… hope it isn’t an ancestor” Since when your Part frog???

A Ninja?

Will this ninja be Karai—wait, is this Mitsu?

Now I wonder who stole those

As always! Listen to the master!

Hearing honour guards from Kenshin father is weird than hearing it from Kenshin

I don’t see the difference between the normal and honour armor

Or they could’ve guess they were killed instead being missing

Guns gets rekt in TMNTverse or any superhero universe.

I’m pretty sure the clan sustain itself from traders. Sure traders need costumers, but they look for one

Shut up, Niles

The disrespect! Ugh

Agree with the sweaty man, Niles is annoying

Stop calling the sweaty man fat! Clearly there’s a reason why he’s chosen to look over prisoners!

Bruuh, I feel the disrespect for rounded people

Are we going to do some killing?

No? Okay

Seriously, number is the strategy? Alright

Okay, I just heard a robotic “I’ll be back” wtf. Is it my website or the actual movie?

You mean facies(poop)

Oh, Fake-Casey got left behind

Why did you guys prison Mikey in your vegetable storage?

Fake-Casey?! Where did you come from?

Don’t flirt with her! She already have a Casey back home

Yeah! Plam strike!

Glad there isn’t any kills, cuz I’m pretty sure thats the revolution group

It’s too early for a victory dance guys. We’re halfway through the movie rn

Ugh, colonizers

Yoshi!? Heh???

There's no thoughts behind his eyes

When they screamed, Mikey proceeds to laugh menacingly.

As they ran away, Mikey continues to mess with them

“Clint Eastwood?” Who?

Niles 😒

Put the fire out! That’s what you do!

You the hero Mikey!

Oh? Does Leo have magic hands in this version?

Oh, CPR. Wait! MEDIC LEO 1990 version!

Wow, Leo has a Talent for horses

Is it me or did your skirt got shorter, April

He could adapt. That’s what humans are good for…

Ah yes, the good ol’ Telly. That’ll work for distracting them

You burnt it Mikey.

Look at Raph, giving non-violent advice 🥹

Aw, Look at this Feudal Japanese men becoming American modern men, he says with sarcasm

This are the honour guard? 🤨

Knew we’ll get murder

In this tugged of war between Raph and Mikey, I bet they’ll break the septer

Man, this kid is dark

Wait is that—

So it was Yoshi who got it! Wow

Gasp! I didn’t expect that! I thought it was Yoshi being a kid wanting to Raph to stay longer! Not this tactical decision of war!

I don’t buy it old man

Betrayals everywhere!

Knew Fake-Casey was bad news the moment he plead for freedom

Looks like the Daimoy is a coward

So, first turtle kill is from Leo?

An indirect death with bell???

No? Aw

“Who’s your Tailor? “We’re naked” Mikey is killing me rn XD

Yes! Psychology play!

You should’ve kept a poker face to make your bluff effective

Oh… did walker just killed the Lord?

Nvm, he got a new haircut on top of his haircut he got from Leo

You really love that bird huh?

Weird Cut, but okay

Mikey! Why?!

What about Splinter?! Or Pizza! Mention Pizza, bet that’ll change their minds

Yeah, Mikey is just staying because of Mitsu isn’t he? 😒

Omg, not the warriors removing their clothes XD

Man, I like this warriors attitude

And Mikey got left, didn’t expect that

Oh! Nvm! Glad he’s back

I understand nothing going on here

Heh???

Hockey! *bows*

Kenshin learned that move from modern times!

Aw, Splinter making his son laugh 🥹

[lemlillianlemon]

It was around midnight when the lights started. All of the "normal" people would think that they were Aurora Borealis, the northern lights. But I knew better. So did tiny and ollie, so did Jackson and Chauncey, and Z, Alex and Alexis. We knew they were here for something but we couldn't figure out what. We were heading to the bakery for hot cocoa and pastries that were freshly made by dad and Ollie, when they landed on the flight line.

"What the fuck, I just wanna show y'all my tarts." Ollie was proud of his ability to bake. It's one of the reasons he's still alive actually. He made a perfect cake for his now boyfriends dad so he wouldn't be killed. "Sphynx, how much does one have to pay aliens to stop," he stands and thinks for a moment, "to stop being weird?" I had to laugh when his big, brown, doe eyes looked up at me. This kid was a varsity baseball player and had several letters on his letterman jacket. And yet, this little man's dyslexia is fucking up his words.

I patted his head and ruffled his hair. "Little man it's gonna be a while before that happens. Now let's get inside before the cold flashes start, ok?" He nods and looks at the back of Jackson's head before crouching down and tackling him. He yelled, "The last one to the bakery is a rotten egg!" And took off running. I watched as Tiny sprinted after him laughing neck in neck with Jackson followed by the twins.

A voice sounded next to me."Dang, who knew that the five of them were so damn fast." It was Z. His brown hair was catching snowflakes and they kept sticking to his undercut. He was smiling up at me. "I will throw you short stacks." A mock offence went over his face. "How DARE-" he got cut off by a loud bang. Alex and Alexis's dad showed up and ran into the bakery sign. Z had to hide his laughter. "You, you uh- you good old man?" He was laying on the ground as we walked over, his fedora on top of the sign and his trench coat covered in snow. "oW," he managed to choke out. Honestly I had to cough to disguise my laugh. Offenderman's weakness was a fucking bright pink sign that said "The Cardigan's Bakery!" In the font comic sans so Ollie could read it.

"You got a little something on your face, seems like it's a lil bit of get rekt!" I couldn't stop myself. I burst out laughing. Offender picked up Z and he said, "Z you little shit, I'm gonna eat you." And that just made me laugh harder. One of the ways he would get us to behave is by telling us that he was gonna turn us into soup when we were younger. "NO WAIT I CAN BEHAVE." Z's trying the safe approach. Saying he'll behave even though we both know he won't. "No can do kiddo. It's time for s o u p." Hearing Z's scream turn into laughter is one of the reasons why I'm still here with them. I may be all powerful but having a family is better then any power I could've asked for.

"Are you boys ready for some pastries? I heard Ollie made some in the shape of y'all's names!" He sets Z down when he says this and both of us are amazed. Ollie's dyslexia is so bad that he physically cannot read English. To him it's just a bunch of squiggles on a piece of paper then move and tumble. He physically cannot read it so most of the street signs around town are in both English and Hieroglyphics because he can easily read that, (I taught him and the others how to read hieroglyphics because he wanted to know how to spell his name when he was 6).

"Wait seriously? Ollie can spell our names?" I have never been so proud of him in my life. Offender shrunk down so he could fit into the bakery and opened the door for Z and I. "Why don't you two go and see for yourselves?" We both rushed in as Ollie was pulling out the pastries. Dad was leaning against the counter, a smile on his tanned face. Ollie looked just like dad but with moms personality.

"Are y'all ready? I have every one's pastries right here!" Ollie's face was priceless. He was so damn proud of himself when he started handing them out to us. Tiny got hers first, a perfectly spelled "T i n y" in hand made croissant dough. She was spewing happy noises so much she could hardly speak. Jackie was next. His name was spelt out "J a k c i e". "Did I get it right Jackie?" Jackson laughed, "you have all the letters correct Ollie!" Oliver beamed with pride, I've never seen him so happy. Alex and Alexis were next. They're identical twins, the only way outsiders can tell them apart is if they look at their eyes closely. You see the twins weren't born with eyes. They had to get a surgery done so they could see. Their doners were people who died in a car accident and their eyes were donated to the twins. Alex and Alexis are boys and have brownish grey hair, tanned skin, a wonderful sense of fashion (they wear the most beautiful dresses), and mismatched eyes. Alex has a green left eye and blue right eye, and Alexis has a blue left eye and a green right eye.

Their names came out spelled "A l e x" and "A l e i x s". I saw Ollie get worried that he didn't get the letters right. Alex, being the wise crack he is, "what's wrong Ollie? Cat got your tongue? You got both of our letters correct!" The worry spilled out of his face as it was replaced with laughter. "Haha Al, very funny," I said while rolling my eyes. I'm Egyptian and my name is Sphynx so they make furry puns and jokes a lot. I don't mind it though. It makes me feel loved.

"Ok ok," Ollie takes a deep breath before handing Z his pastry, "I think I got this one correct?" Z takes one look at it and jumps over the counter to pick up and spin Ollie laughing, "It's perfect Ollie!" After Z put down Ollie he went into the back and came out with another pastry. "I- I had a bit of trouble with this one Chauncey. I'm sorry." Ollie looked down defeated as Chauncey walked up. Chauncey's blonde hair shining underneath his red ball cap. Him and Ollie met at a baseball tournament and they instantly hit it off. Chauncey's pastry was spelt "C h a n s i e".

For some reason he started laughing. And Ollie asked confused, "babe what's happening?" Chauncey had to take a deep breath before he could reveal, "that's now my name was originally spelt before I changed it to get away from my dad!" Ollie's face brightened instantly. Ollie says to himself, "Ok now it's bubbas turn right? Where'd I put it?" He turns around and walks into the back before sliding out on his heelies. "Here you go bubba!" He hands me the most beautiful pastry I have ever seen. It was spelt "S p h y n x". It was gorgeous. "Oh my god, I love it." I couldn't not. My little baby brother has made a huge milestone. His pride filled smile warmed my cold dead heart. "Alright y'all why don't you sit down and eat." Dad was starting the hot choco when he said that. "Do you need any help papa?" Tiny's voice called out from the other side of the bakery.

Dad just laughed and said, "no princess you eat, you need the food." It's true, tiny kept forgetting to eat so we always ate with her. "Ok papa." Her smile was contagious. She was the first girl born in the town in over 100 years and Ollie was the first boy born in over 50. Both were deemed "miracle babies". This means that most of the people that moved to our little rinky dinky town were either too young, or too old to have kids. I remember the 13th of March. 2 days after Ollie was born and 1 after tiny. There was a giant festival for announcing that they were healthy and born. Tiny had brown curly hair, pretty brown, doe eyes like Ollie, and was the shortest out of all of us. She was our special person.

As soon as I went to take a bite out of my S they walked through the door. There were three of them and they were all different colors and fuzzy. There were two guys and a girl. The first one was forest green, he had brown eyes and wild hair while wearing a graphic T-shirt and jeans. The second one, the one standing to his left, was orange. He had a short haircut with combat boots, leather jacket, and black pants. He looked goth. The girl was a light pastel purple, she was wearing a winter knee length dress that was almost the same color as her skin.

"Uh hi," the green one said, he looked sheepish, "we are so sorry to bother you but we just wanted to see what the most dangerous being in the universe was doing and that happened to be you! I'm so sorry if this is weird" he rubbed the back of his neck and the orange one smacked the back of his head. "You're dumb bro," he turned to look up at me, "I'm sorry for this idiot, I'm Kenny, Shrek is named Diego, and this is Miya." He gestured to each of them. "We were sent on a mission to see what the most dangerous figure in the universe wa-" he got cut off by Chauncey shrieking and standing on a table, "Oliver I swear to God put it down before I beat you with a bat!" I look over and Ollie is holding a huge spider by one of its legs, laughing as it squirmed.

Tiny noticed and hit him with a pan making him drop the poor thing and grabbing the spider and walking over to take it outside when she stopped in front of our three visitors. Kenny, the orange one, said "please no," as she looked at him with crazy eyes. "Why not Kendell, don't you want a friend?" Kenny looked at tiny with a serious face, "I will skin you alive you little shit." She rolled her eyes and stepped out, Diego's eyes following her. "Don't Diego," Miya talked for the first time, "don't do it you know what'll happen." Diego sighed and looked sad.

"Stop looking depressed you did this to yourself man." Z walked up and put the tray he had on the counter before hopping up to sit. "You had multiple chances and now you gotta figure it out." Confusion must've betrayed me and crossed my face. Kenny started laughing and said, "ok we HAVE to explain to him or else nothing is gonna make sense."

Turns out the three of them were shopping for Tiny's birthday and Diego doesn't know what to get her so he's panicking because it's 2 days away. He never got the chance to ask her what she wanted for her birthday. I had to give this kid some guidance. He looked so sad. "Dude just get her rocks or rock tumbling stuff. She loves it. Like get her grit." Diego's face lit up while Z and Kenny laughed and Miya rolled her eyes.

Aliens have finally managed to track down the most dangerous being in the galaxy, on earth, hanging out with a bunch of humans because it likes their company.

the adventures of kyle the monk and his posse of mean girls, or: how I unintentionally ended up casually roleplaying as a post-TRoS ben solo in baldur's gate 3. cringe under the cut:

a couple of months ago I'd had a really long day at the long day factory, and was alone in my flat on a friday night, four beers in, and decided to start another bg3 playthrough (after swearing I'd never touch it again, given that it consumed literal days of my life in march/april this year). I wanted to try a monk build, and because I'm cringe and was, as mentioned, four beers deep, I decided I'd make my tav and dream guardian look as close to kylo and rey as I could. unfortunately, because everyone in bg3 looks insanely cunty all the time, the resemblance isn't quite there, and I didn't actually plan to make my tav be like kylo ren, I just wanted to punch stuff and romance lae'zel. I named tav kyle, because that felt like an appropriate name for a dude who punches.

but after a few hours, I realised that the combo of the monk class and psychic powers from the tadpole actually was making kyle quite jedi-like. I'd chosen the soldier background, so kyle also had intimidation proficiency. hey, kylo ren seems like someone who always took intimidation skill checks! kyle was also playing the game a little dirtier than my last tav, mostly because I was trying not to savescum or reroll too often, so kyle was causing quite a bit of unintentional damage when he was trying to do the right thing. that sounds a bit like ben solo pre-fall to the dark side. so then I thought...actually, why not, let's do a little bit of roleplaying. kyle actually is ben solo, who passed out on exegol and woke up on the nautiloid, convinced that everything he's experiencing is weird force trickery, or that faerûn is just another galaxy he's been yeeted into. his life in the star war kind of sucked a bit, so he's happily along for the ride.

I imagine he's now called kyle because the conversation with lae'zel on the nautiloid went like this:

lae'zel: what is your name, istik? reincarnated-as-a-monk-kylo-ren, confused about everything: my name is kyl- lae'zel: k'chaiki! we do not have time! follow me, kyle, we must defeat the ghaik

anyway, this is how kyle's time on the road to defeat the netherbrain has gone sp far:

convinced he's just experiencing one long fever dream after passing out on exegol, he's just going along with everything life hands him

years of jedi training and his high int stat have given him both an open attitude to spirituality and the ability to speedread books he finds along the way, allowing him to educate himself on the lore of the forgotten realms as he goes. being a monk, he also has a high wisdom stat, which is tbh not really in character, but let's just call that metagaming

he's not eating any more tadpoles though. no thanks. minthara and astarion are getting all his tadpoles

after a few days his dream guardian showed up looking like rey. he was so happy to see her, and very eager to help! she must be trying to reach him through the force! he'd do anything for rey!

imagine his horror when she didn't just turn out to be a squid, but a squid called the emperor! he's had enough of emperors for one lifetime. their relationship is a bit frostier now. he might still fuck it if it turns back into rey, though.

having turned from the dark side just before biffing it on exegol, he's determined to turn his life around and start doing good deeds for people. unfortunately, he still finds the easiest route is always [INTIMIDATION] and Flurry of Blows - Topple, much like how back at home [INTIMIDATION] and Hit With Lightsaber always got him what he wanted. this means doing good deeds often means people just get dead. bless him, though, he's trying

he grew a beard and got a tattoo on his neck. when in faerûn, do as the locals do (serve and slay)

he's also been mewing. get rekt, chosen three

it wasn't long before he got laid, githyanki style (I did say this playthrough was ostensibly about romancing lae'zel) which he thought was great, given the closest he got to actual sex in his past life was a force skype hand touch

lae'zel then wanted to duel him to work out her feelings. he didn't win, but mark him down as scared AND horny!

however, after freeing the prisoners from moonrise towers, minthara joined the crew. kyle likes minthara. minthara reminds him a lot of himself. minthara has started tempting him to go back down some very dark roads. minthara suggested the two of them take orin's place as bhaal's chosen, which kyle was very amenable too. [everyone else disliked that]. it isn't his first rodeo when it comes to usurping evil masters

he's spending most of his time with his mean girl posse: shadowheart, astarion, and minthara. all the snark and pettiness feels comfortable. it's a bit like being back in the first order, except these people seem to actually like him and don't want him dead

he also got some new armour that shows off his snatched waist. slay!

he sees a lot of himself in the ragtag bunch of companions that have chosen, however unwisely, to follow him around, and through them is finally finding his chance at true redemption and getting the good ending:

he can understand what it's like to be shadowheart, brainwashed from childhood to carry out the work of a higher power, fed lies about your family, taught to worship pain and loss, and to be cut off from those who'd actually care about you. also the emo dress sense. remembering how hard rey fought for his salvation, he managed to help shadowheart turn her back on shar and free the nightsong

while he hasn't quite realised it yet, he has a lot in comparison with astarion; fearful of a powerful master who has controlled so much of their lives, wishing to seize that master's power for themselves and, in the end, become the very thing they hated and caused them so much pain. when the time comes, he'll help astarion resist the urge to complete the rite of ascension - just like rey tried so hard to stop him from seizing snoke's power. he really learned his lesson with that one

minthara's thirst for vengeance is tempting him to slip back into his old habits, but now he's reached baldur's gate and encountered orin - and minthara has confessed her feelings for him (sorry lae'zel) - he's determined not to let her fall under bhaal's influence

he likes gale, because:

but he can also empathise with gale, who flew too close to the sun and got sent on a suicide mission that he can't refuse. snoke sent him on a lot of those. he would prefer it if gale didn't explode, and is going to try and stop that happening

it's hard not to like wyll, because wyll is nice to everyone all the time, but he also feels he understands wyll's situation, trapped in a pact he can't escape. the road to hell truly is paved with good intentions! he'll do what he can to help wyll break his pact and save his father, because kyle knows what it's like when you don't get closure on your relationship with your father before one (or both) of you dies

lae'zel strong woman hit hard. kyle like. but there's also nothing more inspiring than seeing someone turn their back on their god, and ask the god for forgiveness. to be honest, lae'zel is inspiring kyle's path to redemption as much as anything else

he's not spent much time with karlach, but he's got experience of killing abusive masters. he looks forward to helping her murder gortash to death. but if gortash doesn't die, kyle thinks he would probably fit in very well in the first order

anyway, now he's cutting about baldur's gate with his mean girl posse. they took some time to stop off at the circus of last days and let off some steam:

kyle really enjoyed wasting 4000 gold on face paint. he also really enjoyed whacking dribbles the clown to death. it was a nice touch of whimsy after the horrors of the shadowfell

that's where we're at. lae'zel just got kidnapped by orin, which is a huge bummer, but kyle reckons she'll be fine fending for herself while him and the posse level up a bit. he's got dates with viconia de vir and cazador first. also a heist in hell. lots of punching to do. you know how it is

he's also wearing his pants over his trousers now which is, uh, you do you kyle. slay!
